Subnodes not playing along nicely when animating parent item

I made a custom loading animation for an monorail. It works just fine for the item, but the subnodes (pallets on top) doesnt play along and isnt animated at all. Is there a way to set the surrogate variable so all subnodes are included and animated together?

As it is only the surrogate being moved and not the subnodes of the surrogate, an option is to use kinematics. I have attached an example.

I have disabled the Calculated table as it creates errors.
